POEM STARTER
Write a poem about something a young child wants very badly but cannot have.
Consider your language use for the chosen age of the child and choose a specific style of poetry that would be suitable for this prompt.
Puppy, Please?
May I have a puppy, please?
A pretty puppy would be perfect,
Don’t you agree?
About the puppy, did I ask Daddy?
Tell him my dream of having a dog all my own?
What did he say?
No.
But please, Mommy, may I?
My puppy will have the bestest care,
I swear.
I will walk her and bath her and brush out her fur.
I will love her forever and ever, and ever and ever.
Please?
No.
…May I have a kitty, please?
